Pigs in suits count dollars,
Guzzle the finest filth from trophs
But never satisfied
With bloated guts,
Or heavy pockets,
Send wolves to huff and puff
On the shells of turtles
Demanding gold be strung from straw
Since the swine are so deprived
Turtles toss them breadcrumbs
And listen to grumbles
Resonate from hollow shells,
But blame sorrows on
Vibrant peacocks,
Desert camels,
And hairless dogs
